CMA accepts remedies in fuel pumps merger

Competition and Markets Authority

This follows the Competition and Markets Authoritys (CMA) intervention to ensure that choice is maintained for petrol and diesel retailers in the UK in relation to the supplier of their fuel pumps. Without maintaining competition and choice in this sector, the CMA would expect the cost of purchasing and maintaining fuel pumps at petrol stations in the UK to increase, or service quality to fall, resulting in higher road fuel costs to UK motorists.

Dover Corporation (Dover) has agreed to sell Wayne Fueling System Ltds (Wayne) UK distribution business to Petrotec S.G.P.S. S.A., which the CMA considers to be a suitable purchaser.

Therefore the merger will not be referred for an in-depth investigation.

All information relating to this investigation can be found on the case page.
